Jean ROCHEFORT

KANADA, 1992.

Jean Rochefort began his violin studies at age four with F. Lavoie; by twelve, he was accepted in the
class of V. Landsman at the University of Montréal, where he started his Bachelor at age of sixteen and,
following his precocious acceptance, was awarded with a scholarship of excellency. He was, that same
year, to win first prizes at the Musical Competition of Canada and the Classical Music Festival of
Montréal. After obtaining a Master’s Degree under guidance of Professor Landsman, he pursued his
musical training at the Brussels Conservatory with Jacques Dupriez; and was until now studying at the
Conservatory of Vienna; he is now to study at the St. Petersburg Conservatory.
